Sheet show on ice

Three years ago, British artist Cornelia Parker got actress Tilda Swinton, the god-daughter of the Queen Mother and star of films by Derek Jarman and Sally Potter, to sit in a glass case for a week as part of an exhibition called The Maybe. Swinton, sat, slept and sipped water in the case for all the visitors to the Serpentine Gallery in London to ogle at, in what was, in some ways, the most famous performance of her career.

Hong Kong photographer Tse Ming Chong spent a night in the Fringe Gallery, getting up the next morning as usual, and going off to work. Late at night there weren't many passers-by to ogle at him, but his every breath and, more importantly, every utterance were captured by a video camera.

Tse says he has never heard of the Swinton exhibition, he came to this same idea quite independently because he wanted to do something about sleep talking. He has been aware that he talks, a lot, in his sleep since childhood when his mother used to ask him who he had been talking to in his room.

He is fascinated by the way he has already exposed his private subconscious, and the exhibition is his way of exploring the idea further.

The footage of his night at the Fringe will be played back on a wall made of ice on June 20 from 7pm onwards. Originally, Tse says he wanted to build 'a whole gallery from ice' but it was too expensive 'and dangerous', so instead we are getting a sheet about 1.5 metres high. This will of course melt, as the night goes on, making it impossible to see the footage but Tse says that is part of the experience. Fair enough, but it could be really frustrating if the screen turns into a puddle just as we get to a really interesting bit.

Joseph's unamazing love life Famous actors spend almost their entire lives in the public eye - that was the point of Tilda Swinton's performance - and the star of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat, Darren Day, has his own sad tale to tell on the subject.

Joseph is not a role for bad boys and Day, like his predecessors, had to be a Mr Clean. Until just recently, when he got the full tabloid treatment as a 'love-rat' after he stopped dating one actress, and started going out with another.
